The prime minister will visit Antalya from November 10 to 12. He will address world leaders on November 11 and call for stronger international action against climate change.
According to the Foreign Office (FO), Pakistan will use the summit to highlight its climate initiatives and seek greater financial support for developing countries.
Pakistan to Highlight Renewable Energy Progress
During his address, Shehbaz Sharif will present Pakistan’s efforts to expand solar power and renewable energy capacity.
The government aims to promote a cleaner and more resilient economy through its energy transition. The prime minister will also discuss measures to improve disaster preparedness and strengthen early-warning systems.
These initiatives remain important for Pakistan as the country continues to face climate-related challenges, including floods, extreme temperatures and other natural disasters.
Climate Finance Remains a Key Demand
Pakistan will also call on the international community to provide predictable, adequate and accessible climate financing.
The funding would help developing countries strengthen their resilience, prepare for climate emergencies and pursue sustainable development.
Climate finance remains a major issue at COP31. Developing countries continue to demand greater financial support from wealthier nations to address the growing costs of climate change.
PM to Hold Meetings With World Leaders
Apart from addressing the summit, Shehbaz Sharif will attend a high-level roundtable organised by the COP31 presidency.
He is also expected to hold bilateral meetings with Turkish leaders and several other world leaders. These discussions will provide an opportunity to strengthen diplomatic engagement and discuss shared climate priorities.
The Foreign Office said Pakistan’s participation reflects its strong support for the global climate agenda. It also offers an opportunity to reaffirm the country’s commitment to international cooperation on climate action.
